Can't get shares to short - Danger Will Robinson

Every Tom, Dick and Harry are now short. Mr. Market knows the game to play here. Should a market rally get rolling expect to see some shorts blown out with a squeeze the casual shorts game.

Has anyone been able to short BCRX? Wouldn't now if given the chance as the casual shorts are Wall Street Bait.

Upper 20's please.

I don't disagree with him. But until $13 is taken out, it may still have a lot of volatility. I think however that that outfit used to be quite negative on HANS in the mid $20 pre split. They never gave a sell on CNCT, which is now hitting new yearly lows. They do not give many long recs, and CNCT, one I follo9w, surely was not a stellar choice.

There are really two BCRXs.

1. BCRX the company. History of failure, dubious management, a drug, peramivir that failed phase 111 followed by JNJ exiting.

2. BCRX the stock.

Like all mania, MO-MOs stocks, the two can be totally disconnected for long periods of time. Reality always wins in the end but the end can be a long ways off.

We've all seen them. TASR, ENRON, NVEC, KKD, CAFE, CGMI, Pets.com, GNTA, HGSI, ABGX. A never ending and ever changing parade of tulips. A few turn out to be the real thing, many others go back where they came from.

The thing to do is make hay while the sun shines. And try not be a bagholder aka The Greatest Fool.
